Following the recent collaboration with Hatsune Miku, Sanrio announced their collaboration with AKB48, featuring a new series of products.
This series would be featuring Hello Kitty wearing the costume from the song “Iiwake Maybe (言い訳Maybe)”. Each product will have three different team versions (A, K, B) and the team letter will be inprinted on the ribbon worn on Hello Kitty’s head. There will be 12 different products released in the first wave and it will include memo pad, ringed notebook, clear file, mini towels with prices ranging from 300-400yen.
Hmm... no Team 4... Maybe it was planned way before Team 4 is officially formed?
These products will be sold at Sanrio outlets at Ginza and Ikebukuro and the Sanrio Puroland, starting from early August. A product launch called 'AKB48 meets Hello Kitty' would take place in Sanrio Puroland on 26th of July, where the products would go on an earlier sale, and a few AKB48 members would be making an appearance at the product launch. It's not announced who would be attending yet though.
AKB48 products, kind of expensive... Hello Kitty mostly very expensive... omg... this collaboration would going to burn a serious hole in the pocket! >.<
